Cyclone

Cyclone cannot target enemies. It's a side-effect of that feature.

Would it be possible to change the crit calculation for cyclone?
Today it works like this: You target a location across the screen and cyclone through a pack of enemies. You either crit all of them (if you hit), or you crit non of them. This is because the crit calculation is done when you initiate the cyclone (it basically counts a 1 attack, and 1 attack either crits or it does not) It would be beneficial if the crit or not crit calculation was per hit (or revolution, so per every two hits). I bring it up becuase when I play CoC cyclone and make a "mistake", I usually just plain die. The "mistake" being that I attack a point far away from my character and I end up cycloning through a hugh pack of mobs. Non of the hits result in a crit, and no Cast on crit events occour (no damage = no leech = death). And since the attack is unstoppable, I can just watch as I cyclone to death. Usually I play with Cyclone bound to Q, and then I hover the mouse just outside my character while I hold Q - Direction is then changed by rotation the pointer around my character. This produces a lot of attacks, that in turn all roll for crit or no crit, resulting in a steady stream of crits. (Crit on my cyclone is ~72% without power charges and ~88% with). Still sane exile?

but cyclone in specific hasn't changed in range... when i muttered patch notes that was for other skills because yes the date is different and i even said how it's missing the new skills lol.
weapon ranges never changed so far so cyclone uses weapon range for its BASE AoE size. this information IS listed on the forum post. doubt it counts as a fanboy if i can barely play nowdays =p |

I came here to say that after years of playing ARPGs, current state of Cyclone in conjunction with Lockstep is the most fun I've had in years. It works well, feels great and is very viable.
Please fix/improve the other skills, no need to nerf it to the ground at the end of the league. Thanks! Last edited by Zoxjib#5083 on Aug 1, 2015, 6:11:54 PM

" I completely agree with this. Cyclone is popular because it's viable and fun, not because it's overpowered. The state of other melee abilities is just extremely poor at the moment. I believe most melee abilities should some aspect of survivability as we are forced to face tank monsters. It is simply not fair that ranged builds are safer, cheaper, and output more damage. Not to mention the extreme gear-dependency melee requires to be viable end-game. Ice Crash was a step in the right direction as the chill-portion of the ability offers an inherit defense while still outputting solid damage. By revisiting existing abilities and adding small defensive tweaks, such as a small life leech component to Cleave for example, would give these bland abilities more of a unique identity in PoE. In any event, I'm currently having more fun with Cyclone than I've ever had in PoE. I finally feel on-par with casters and I am loving it. Thanks for the great expansion GGG. Please don't nerf cyclone. in chris we trust <3

Cyclone feels awesome paired with lockstep.
The chance to Vaal +1% maximum resists on an amulet is less than 1/300.
